The obituaries in the local paper have revealed another interesting juxtaposition of family names.
Mr Richard Basil Berry, son of William Basil Berry and Lily Berry, has departed this life. He is survived by his wife, Mary Berry.
Mr Berry was born in Garden, Michigan, in 1937, and is being served by a funeral home in Newberry.
Sadly, the obit does not report the names of any of Mr Berry's eight children, two stepchildren, 26 grandchildren or two great-grandchildren.
